from Alexis Avila CEO of Prepped & Polished

  • Visit school when it is in session, bustling with kids.
  • Sleepover in the dorms. Hanging out with students overnight will tell you volumes about the day to day college scene.
  • Really taste the food! You’re going to spend the next two to four years eating at this dining hall, so make sure you like the cuisine!
  • Identify your academic interest and take a class in it. Was the class interesting? Were the students engaged?
  • Get to know other college students. Find out what’s REALLY happening at the school.
